Overall good experience. However, they do charge $15 to park at their parking lot. Also, one of the charging ports didn’t work.

Property was difficult to find…no beach access Even though They advertise it’s close to the beach. Over a mile walk downhill to the beach and very little public access to the ocean must cross a major thoroughfare to get to the beach itself. For older guests the walk back to hotel would be impossible due to the extreme hill. Definitely not will be expected. Beds were old not comfortable and the pillows were flat. Would not recommend!

Absolutely enjoyed our stay here. The pool is heated and the jacuzzi is really nice. It was nice and quiet at night. The free breakfast in the morning was really good with a variety of good options.

Staff seemed lovely enough and were as accommodating as possible. Our first room smelled like urine. I asked to be moved and when we got into the new room it smelled of air freshener & cigarettes. I know they can’t control what previous people have done to the room, but it was intolerable. My daughters and I were supposed to stay 2 nights, but we checked out the next morning. The bathtub/shower was peeling off and our feet were black from carpet. We slept on top of the bedding for fear the linens hadn’t been washed. I already reached out to you, Expedia, and 2nd night has been refunded. Thank you for your understanding.

Nice hotel, but they allow dogs.
First night awakened by barking dog and 2nd floor back entrance door closing several times, probably to let the dog out. They must’ve left because the second and third night were quiet. Food was typical of a hotel, good selection. Pleasant lobby and dining area. This is our 3rd time staying here.

We had no issues and the property was fine. The cost was over 300/ a night which in my mind is a 4 star. It was clean and comfortable enough but more like a 2.5 star. I just expected more for the price. It was a clean budget motel
